In support of those displaced by the Northern California Fires

On Monday morning when I stepped outside for my run, the air smelled like smoke and it was unusually warm for 5am. I googled smoke smell in the Bay Area and discovered that 10 fires had already burned 20,000 acres in Napa and Sonoma counties, about an hour and a half north of where I live.Since Monday more than 150,000 acres have burned, 2000 homes have fallen, 17 lives have been lost and 500 people are missing. Additionally, more than 20,000 people have been displaced.Schools closed for the week. It will take years to rebuild from the devastation.
